Santa lights the tree with the assistance of Ricky Fallardeau and Raegan Bethell.
The Keizer Chamber of Commerce hosted the annual lighting of the Keizer Christmas Tree Tuesday, Dec. 1.
While the event typically draws a large crowd, spectators were encouraged to view the lighting online this year.
For the first time, the trunk of the tree is now protected by a wrought iron fence provided by Mike Gatchet of G & S Machine.
